Gabriel Buentello, why do you hate fun? Why you gotta be so mean to Simony, huh?

SWEDISH MUSCLE OPEN CHALLENGE!!

Damned New England Revolution, skulking about like...skulking things. They still haven't gotten quite what they deserved though.

Ash Campbell and Acid... what a pair of assholes. All that big talk of "hurr durr, we's the best. Second generation and hand-picked by the owner! Let's get our managers involved and make it a 4-on-2, because that proves how awesome we are. durrdedurrdedurr."

An aside, fuck that match. Fuck that B-, fuck that 72.

God damn it Jerry, you were supposed to end this self-serving title reign.

After the announce crew welcomes us, it’s off to the RPW Women’s Invitational. We start off with a video introducing our first competitors. We see a video of Danielle Sweetheart out shopping at a mall. She says that she may be a total girly girl at times, but she’s not afraid to fight in the ring. We then switch to Paige Croft. She says that wherever she goes, she owns the ring. She issues a warning to all the other “little girls”, saying they either swear fealty, or face the consequences.

RPW Women’s Invitational Block B MatchDanielle Sweetheart vs Paige CroftSweetheart starts off fast, but she’s too amped up to keep her offense mistake free, and once she slips, Croft takes advantage by slapping on a submission, or throwing Sweetheart to the mat. Sweetheart starts to make a comeback, but is derailed by a low blow, and she gets rolled up, as Croft uses the ropes for leverage.

We get introduced to our next competators. First up, is Estrella Blanca, the high-flying Luchadora from Mexico. Her introduction shows off her impressive athleticism and dazzling high flying. The second half of the video is dedicated to Jamie Quine. We see highlights of her reign as AAA’s Top Contender’s Title holder, as she tells us that she got where she is by working smarter, not harder. She says that the word “cheating” was invented by pathetic losers, trying to pump up their fragile sense of honor.

RPW Women’s Invitational Block A MatchEstrella Blanca vs Jamie QuineEstrella Blanca kicks the match up a few gears right out of the gate. Her high flying offense keeps the veteran Quine off guard for most of the match. A dropkick to the back of Quine sends her stumbling into the turnbuckle. As Blanca celebrates and heads for the opposing corner, Quine takes the turnbuckle pad off. Blanca gets a running start, but she’s met by Quine coming out of the corner, hitting her with a spinebuster onto the exposed turnbuckle. Blanca stumbles out of the corner in agony, clutching her back. Quine hits the ropes and unloads the K.O Kick to the back of Blanca’s head, giving Jamie Quine the first round victory

Our third pairing starts off with an introduction of Foxxy LaRue. She says that all her life, she’s been told that women can’t fight, can’t compete, can’t be champions. She says those words drive her. Push her to prove those people wrong. She’s here in RPW to prove that women can compete with the men, and eventually, they will. We get a tone shift to slow motion video of Queen Amazon tearing women in half with a Spear, and leveling another with a huge running Powerbomb. The only words we hear Queen Amazon speak during the video are “Hunt or be hunted.”

RPW Women’s Invitational Block A MatchFoxxy LaRue vs Queen AmazonThese two come out to the center of the ring, and start trading forearms and elbows. This match goes back and forth with neither woman able to gain a distinct advantage. Foxxy goes to finish the match with her Flash Head Kick (Spinning Heel Kick), but Amazon avoids the kill shot, which causes Foxxy to crash to the mat. Queen Amazon stalks her prey, as Foxxy picks herself up. As Foxxy staggers to her feet, Amazon rips through her with a powerful Spear.

Backstage we see Steve Flash and Matty Faith in the interview area. Flash says that Frank isn’t with them right now because he’s got some preparations to make for his match tonight. Flash says they’ve been friends for years, but, well, his performance of late has him reconsidering their business arrangement. He tells us that Frank is on, a sort of probation. He says that he’s keeping a close eye on him tonight.

Our final video introduces us to Debbie Rose. Her portion of the video shows split screen her wrestling, and taking in the local culture of places around the country. She talks about loving professional wrestling, and how she’s so grateful that she gets to meet all these wonderful people, and see all the different sights. She says she can’t wait to get to know the people and places RPW take her. The final, mystery participant is shown as a silhouette. The voice over says “No matter what happens, I’m always… Strong” The shadow lifts and reveals that Alicia Strong is the final competitor in the RPW Women’s Invitational She goes on to say that she created and owned the USPW Women’s Division, and it was her playground. And now, she’s going to rule RPW.

We got to our interview area where we see Tony Chambers, new color commentator Duke Hazzard, and Chloe Dean. They recap the first day of the RPW Women’s Invitational, and go over the fantastic match Alicia Strong and Debbie Rose just had. Shifting gears, they talk about tonight’s main event, where Kirk Jameson will face longtime veteran Dean Daniels. They say that Kirk is getting another shot at Steve Flash’s RPW Championship, and bring up that last time Jameson and Flash faced off, Jameson won via DQ.

We get some cell phone footage of Mito Miwa at an amusement park. He’s walking around, talking in Japanese, and the man holding the phone replies in kind. The phone whips around, and we see that it’s Nigel Svensson. We then see a montage of the two playing minigolf, playing some arcade games, riding bumper cars, and the video ends with a still photo taken from a roller coaster with the title “Nigel and Mito’s Summer Adventures, Part 1”

RPW Tag Team Championship MatchWolf’s Rayne (Running Wolf & Rayne Man) vs Punchline (Steel & Austin Moore) w/ Drake Young
The strongmen of the group are the challengers today, and they look to push the RPW Tag Team Champions around. Drake Young makes his presence felt early, as he takes a cheap shot on Running Wolf as he’s propped on the ropes, while the ref is distracted. Drake Young is the equalizer here, as he’s there to cause a distraction whenever Wolf’s Rayne gets any traction. He gets a little too brazen though, as he goes to inflict more damage on Running Wolf, the ref catches him, and calls for the bell, as security is forced to remove Young from ringside.

Wolf's Rayne wins via DQ

We now cut to a video showing the career of Steve Flash with a few clips of his stint in DAVE, and his return to the reborn RPW. We hear from Nigel, Running Wolf, Matthew Keith, and Kirk Jameson about their experiences with Steve Flash. The words “coward” and “egotistical” are echoed a few times. The last shot is of Steve Flash standing tall with the RPW Championship, one boot planted on KC Glenn.

Rating: D- (39)

Kirk Jameson vs Dean DanielsThis match is hotly contested, as Jameson looks to give himself some momentum heading into his title match against Steve Flash, and Dean Daniels is looking to bounce back after a series of losses to Matthew Keith. This one is back and forth, with no one man gaining the upper hand. Eventually, the youth and stamina of Jameson wins out, as Daniels starts to slow a step, and Jameson is able to hit the Bullseye to cap off the night.

After his win, Jameson doesn’t even celebrate. He starts yelling for Flash to get his ass out there. Then, Now, Forever doesn’t wait long to respond. As the trio makes their appearance, Jameson slides out of the ring, and grabs a chair, hoping to even the odds in his favor. TNF surround the ring, before they all slide in at once. Jameson tries to fight them off, eventually taking down Frank, but the chair provides only so much help. The numbers game overtakes Jameson, and the beat down is on. Flash grabs the chair, and orders Faith to hold down Jameson, and he lifts the chair above his head, then stops. He looks down at the RPW Championship for a moment, before grabbing it. He kneels by Jameson’s face, as Frank and Faith hold him down, and asks the dazed Jameson if this is what he wants. Flash says that if he wants it so much, he can have it. He puts Jameson’s face onto the RPW Championship and grabs the chair. Jameson, now realizing his predicament, starts to squirm, but the weight and strength of Faith keep him in position, as Flash brings the chair down, crushing Jameson’s head into the title, as Kirk goes motionless. Flash fetches his title and holds it aloft in one hand, and the chair in the other.

Jesus Christ Jama...why you gotta kill Kirk Jameson like that? TNF are such dicks. I guess that's what happens when you book Matt Keith for the pre-show and he doesn't get to actually show up.

That ladies tournament is going to be pretty killer for you #RealMainEvent.

Most of your roster was such a delightful afterthought, I kinda feel bad for them. Even the the tag title match sure didn't feel that important. It's a brave new world in RPW. I'm sure it will be fun to watch this evolve

Our announce team of Phonse Lockett & Samuel Curran open the show, with Simony Sentinel again sitting in for Gabriel Buentello. They do a quick rundown of the Commonwealth Cup seminfinals matches pitting Ash Campbell against Austin Smooth and Acid II facing Fro Sure
Rating: D (45)

Gabriel Buentello comes out to the ring and introduces his guests at this time, New England Revolution. Gabriel was pleased to have this time with them because they have something in common. They hate what has happened to Boston. They hate that people come in here with no class, no reverence for the history of this great city in this great country. No they just come to America expecting handouts and special treatment. People like Amazing Fire Fly and Boriken Love Machine Jr.
Masked Patriot couldn't agree more. They call themselves Wild and Free but all NE Revolution sees are Liars and Thieves. They're just a dirty Mexican and honorless Puerto Rican...not even a real American, hiding behind masks taking jobs away from honest, hard-working Americans. Making people like his beloved Pilgrim have to live on the scraps of what's left. Well it ENDS. NOW. New England Revolution will not stop until they have wiped those who steal from America off the map. And it starts tonight with another dirty Mexican in a mask. The Revolution is coming, and it will be felt!

NE Revolution continues to beat down Dragon after the match and that brings out Wild and Free who run off the duo. And they let Patriot and Pilgrim know they have a fight ready for them, if they're men enough to face them

We go back to Cherry Bomb's office where she's just going in, and Ernest Youngman meets her. He knows that she didn't want to give him a shot at Donnie J, but there's a new Openweight champion and that should mean that he can get a new shot at the title. Cherry Bomb is actually quite open to that idea, because for some reason the fans in Boston really do seem to love The Assassin. So she will grant Youngman's request and give him the title match he wants at tomorrow's Commonwealth Cup Finals...if he can find a tag partner and beat The Monster & Kirk Drury, tonight. Youngman smiles and takes off his shades telling Cherry that's all he needed to hear

Shoot Club calls out Swedish Muscle and says this time, there will be no mercy, and Shoot Club will finally wear gold in Boston

Youngman is talking to a group of the babyfaces trying to find someone willing to take on Monster Inc. but nobody is stepping up, until Regular Joe comes over. He tells Youngman that they made a good team last time out, and if Youngman needs someone to watch his back, Joe would be willing to do it. Youngman smirks and asks if he's bringing his little Pixie to the dance. Joe says that between the two of them he's confident that he doesn't need any help, just like Youngman hasn't needed since he sent Red away. Youngman nods as if to say touche, and then pats Joe on the shoulder saying he will remember this when he's Openweight Champ again

Katie Cameron is at the CWB logo with our first semifinalist in the Commonwealth Cup, Austin Smooth. She asks if he's made all his preparations to face Ash Campbell tonight and Smooth answers in the affirmative. He's been Boston for about 18 months now and he hasn't had THE big win yet. He never quite beat KC Glenn or El Mitico, Donnie J or Spencer Spade, and the win he got over Ernest Youngman...he didn't do that himself. But he did beat the man that is the Openweight champion. He made The Monster TAP. OUT. Now, The Monster just jumped the line and became champion anyway, and that pisses him off. He's worked hard to get where he's gotten, and gone around the world to up his game, and The Monster can just throw his weight around and be champ? That's fine because Austin will keep working, and grinding and make his way to the top and when he gets there, he's going to make sure The Monster's trip back down the mountain is nothing, if not Smooth

Ernest Youngman & Regular Joe vs. Monster Inc. - The Monster & Kirk Drury
Youngman (19:44) via The Hit on The Monster
Monster Inc. was not interested in this being a particularly fair fight, not with the stakes so high. They do their best to work Joe over and keep Youngman out of the match but eventually The Assassin gets in and cleans house. Things do break down and after a Joe and Behold on Drury and The Maw of the Monster on Joe, Pettle tries to run a distraction on Youngman and Kurt Lovenkrantz, which works, only to have the Purple Pixie fly by with a missile dropkick to the back of The Monster's head, which pushes him right into The Hit. Youngman gets his win and he will get his shot at the Openweight Title

Gabriel Buentello (looking quite perplexed that The Purple Pixie showed up again, might I add) is at the CWB logo to interview Commonwealth Cup semifinalist Ash Campbell, with Lisa Bowen. Gabriel asks "How we doing today, champ?" to which Ash can't hide his customary smirk. He's doing fantastic. He's got the lovely Lisa Bowen on on arm, soon he's going to have the Commonwealth Cup in the other, and not long after that he's going to have the Openweight Title around his waist. What's not to love about all of that? And he's sorry to Boston, that he's not sorry he's about to dominate in way never before seen. Because his girl wants the finer things in life, and what the Little Caboose wants, she gets. Bowen smiles and reminds everyone that they're dealing with the next generation of superstars, and their resistance is futile. What they want will be theirs, whether people like it or not

Commonwealth Cup Semifinals Match
Ash Campbell vs. Austin Smooth
Smooth (16:33) via Smooth Hold
This is a very deliberate affair with both guys being tentative, not wanting to make the big mistake that exposes them. Unfortunately for Smooth, Campbell has that ace up his sleeve in Lisa Bowen that gives him the opening he needs to take the advantage. Campbell works Smooth over methodically, knocking Smooth back down when he tries to rise up, but eventually Smooth breaks free and makes the comeback. Bowen gets involved again starting to undo a turnbuckle pad till she gets caught and reprimanded, which buys Campbell time to undo a different pad, and then drive Smooth face first into it. Campbell goes up top for the Shooting Star Press but Smooth moves at the last instant and Campbell crashes face first into the mat, the perfect position for Smooth to slap on the Smooth Hold. In the middle of the ring, with nowhere to go, Campbell has no choice but to tap out

Katie Cameron is at the CWB logo with Fro Sure for an interview before the main event. She asks if Fro is ready for possibly two of the biggest nights of his life, and Fro says he couldn't be more ready. He's dropped the shucking and jiving since he's come to Boston. He loves to entertain and make the fans happy, but he's here to do more than that. He's here to prove that he loves this: competing and testing himself against the very best. He's ready to show that he's not just an entertainer, not just a wrestler, bu that he's the very best out there. And to do that he will win the Commonwealth Cup. He will prove that nobody in this company can touch him, Fro Sure

Gabriel Buentello is in Monster Inc.'s personal locker room to interview Acid II with Pettle. Acid is in the premier organization in CWB. He's the number two man. He's the representation of The Monster's interests in the Commonwealth Cup tournament. Does he feel the pressure to perform? Pettle smiles indignantly but Acid shows nothing behind his mask as he answers that he feels no pressure. The Monster created Monster Inc. to dominate this company. And when it's first iteration failed, The Monster started anew with Acid as one of the jewels in the new crown. And he is going to pay that confidence back by adding the one trophy Monster Inc. has never held: The Commonwealth Cup

This one comes out at a frantic pace with neither man wanting this one to go long, with the potential final match tomorrow night, but as each guy goes for big moves they realize they're going to have to wear each other down to get there first. Both have their moments in control but Acid gets out in front and beats Fro around the ringside area to really hammer his opponent down. Late in the match, Fro fires up and hits the Sure Thing but Pettle distracts the ref from making the count. Fro tries to run Pettle off but Acid is up and crunches Fro with a lungblower. He then goes and hits the Acid Rain Bomb, and Fro Sure locks up his spot in the finals, celebrating as CWB comes to a close

The veteran Natural and the younger Warren Technique get thrown in the deep end of the pool, facing CWB stalwarts Flash Bomb, and their chemistry carries the early section of the match, but once Natural Technique takes control on Martin, it becomes clear this will be a threat in the tag division. They lose control of Martin and Steve Flash comes out swinging, but eventually he simply strikes out, and Warren Technique makes Flash pass out in his STF

We go to the CWB logo where Katie Cameron is standing by with the number one contender to the Openweight Title, Ernest Youngman. She asks how he feels finally getting his shot to regain his title, against the man he won the title. Youngman says it's been a long year, since he won the 2014 Commonwealth Cup and became the first Boston Openweight Champion. He's been through a lot, and he's seen great growth throughout CWB, and none of that is more evident than with the man holding his title, The Monster. It may be very easy to look at The Monster and say he stole the Openweight Title, but he had an opportunity in front of him and he took advantage of it. And that's all you can ask for in Boston: Just get one opportunity and make it count. Well The Assassin has crossed The Monster's name off The List once, and he can do it again. So he's glad he's got this one shot, because he's going to make it count and bring the Openweight Title back where it belongs...home

Katie Cameron is at the CWB logo with her guests at this time, Wild and Free. Cameron is her usual guarded self around BLM and asks Fire Fly how they feel about the less than veiled threats levied against them by New England Revolution and Gabriel Buentello. Fire Fly knows people may find them to be weird or eccentric...especially this one, he points to BLM holding up a large daisy for Cameron, as if a peace offering. Cameron is touched and takes it and BLM sweeps her in his arms. I mean no offense and no harm, I just appreciate the human body, in all its forms, and I cannot help what I find...appealing. He says releasing a flushed Cameron from his grip. Fire Fly restarts noting that the things Masked Patriot accuses them of are untrue and if they think it will be so easy to get rid of them, they haven't been paying attention. But when they're done, they'll know you don't get rid of them so easy. Their will is bigger than they think

Fire Fly (16:06) via Sky High Fire Fly on Pilgrim
NE Revolution does come in looking to steamroll the young foreigners and for a time it works. The Revolution takes particular glee in working over BLM as Buentello froths on commentary, but the Exotico is able to hang in and get his young partner in, and Fire Fly is a ball of lighting flashing all over the ring. BLM is able to wipe out Patriot with a springboard moonsault to the outside (conveniently laying prone on Patriot in a compromising position), which gives Fire Fly the time to hit the Sky High Fire Fly and bring it home for their team

Campbell is in a surly mood, because he's not in the main event tonight, and Lisa hushes him. He looks surprised considering her ultimatum that he brings home a title, and Lisa shushes him again. She's more than pleased with how he did in the Commonwealth Cup and she wanted to do something special for him, so she's got a surprise for him. Ash looks pleased and peaks at Bowen's caboose, but she wags her finger. He'll get his surprise out there, in the ring tonight. If he's a good boy.

Gabriel Buentello is at the CWB logo to interview Monster Inc., as the entire unit is here, before their main event matches. Buentello starts with Acid II, asking if he feels prepared to finally win the Commonwealth Cup that has eluded their faction for these last 3 years. Acid replies that he is more than ready, he has never been more ready for a match in his life. He knows just how good Austin Smooth is, as they've torn it up many a time before in Matthew Keith's...playground. But this isn't play time anymore, this is for real. This is for keeps. This is for the Commonwealth Cup. And it doesn't matter how good Austin Smooth is, how good he has become, when it comes to this match tonight, it is a match he cannot lose and it is a match he will not lose. He will show everyone what Monster Inc. is capable of. He will show everyone what Acid is made of
Gabriel then turns his attention to the Openweight Champion, asking what he thinks of his first match against Ernest Youngman since they met at last year's Commonwealth Cup. The Monster gives a hungry looking smile then says that he's waited a year for this meal, and he will devour Ernest Youngman. Then nobody will doubt The Monster's dominance over Boston

We go to the back to a pensive looking Fro Sure stalking back and forth before he settles and says that he was THIS close to the biggest match of his life, but he came up short against Acid II. The loss stings, but he knows how close he is to being at the top of his game, and if he can't be wrestling for the Commonwealth Cup, this is a pretty nice consolation. Fro hasn't seen Ash in a while, in the middle of that ring, and that's a shame because he knows that Ash can go like few others. And Fro loves the challenge of beating someone talented like that. And Fro also knows that when he beats Campbell, it'll put him right near the top of the list of guys to wrestle for the Openweight Title, so he hopes Ash brings everything he's got to the ring tonight, so that when he loses he knows it was to the better man. Fro Sure.

As he goes for it though, The Monster fells Youngman with a clear low blow.

All that matters is that he goes out there and puts on the show he knows he's capable of, take everything that Acid and Monster Inc. can throw at him, outlast it all and do the thing that he promised he would at the beginning of the hot summer: Win the 2015 Commonwealth Cup.

Both men struggle to maintain control, but down the stretch Acid exerts himself and Smooth starts to wilt. Acid gets Smooth down with a huge backdrop and goes for the Acid Rain Bomb, but much like the semis, Smooth is able to move at just the last moment, and locks the Smooth Hold on the dazed and prone opponent.

Faith grabs a mic after the match, and says that he wants to prove to Steve Flash that he’s much more capable than Frank ever could be. Flash nods, and leaves the ring. Faith proceeds to run down the competition in RPW and says that he found someone before the show that will be a real challenge. He points to the ramp, and a dumpty masked man comes out, slowly working his way towards the ring.

We go to the interview area where Chloe Dean welcomes to RPW TCW Wrestler, Teddy Powell. Powell introduces himself and says he’s spending some time here to give back to the wrestling industry. He says he wants to help the next generation find their way. As he’s saying this, a fist-pumping Ant-Man enters the shot with a pair of over-sized headphones on. When he recognizes Powell, he takes the headphones off, and shakes Powell’s hand, saying that he recognized him. While the two are exchanging pleasantries, Drake Young enters the frame, looking smug. He says that what could a washed up curtain-jerker possibly teach anybody. Powell says that he’s got more knowledge and respect for the business than Young will ever have. He says he’ll prove it by teaming up with young Ant-Man here and beating Young and whoever he can find to be his partner tonight. Young laughs, and exits the shot, saying this is too easy.

Foxxy easily outpowers the luchadora and uses her size advantage to dictate the pace. Estrella starts a comeback off of a picture perfect missile dropkick, but the rally comes to an abrupt halt when LaRue turns Estrella inside-out with a lariat. A quick Flash Head Kick later, and LaRue gets on the board.

Back in the interview area, we see Chloe Dean welcome Kip Keenan and Topher Smith. Dean says that Kip’s had a rough debut here in RPW, and Topher Smith couldn’t find too much traction with his tag team partner. Are they hoping they can gel enough tonight to give them some momentum going forwards? Topher nods, and starts by saying that he’s still friends with Ant-Man, they just need some time to stretch their legs. Before you know it, the Gopher and the Ant will be back stronger than ever. Kip says that he’s a bit like a character from The Tortoise and the Hare. You see, he’s the hare who takes a bit of time to hit top speed. Now that he’s got past the rough patch, he’s going to streak past everyone and show how good he can be. Dean asks him if he’s ever read the Tortoise and the Hare, and Keenan replies that he’s got the premise. Hare and Tortoise race, and the hare blows the turtle out of the water because of how fast he is. Dean shakes her head and says that the hare loses the race because he gets over-confident, and takes a nap. Kip looks horrified and starts rubbing his temples as he calls himself stupid repeatedly before leaving the shot.

Rose tries to follow Foxxy’s example, and goes for a handshake, but she eats a kick to the face for her troubles. Croft continues the ground-and pound offense on Rose, demanding that Rose kiss her boots and beg for mercy. Rose almost catches Croft with a roll up, which infuriates Croft. Rose takes advantage of the outraged Croft, and takes control for long enough to hit a Fisherman’s Neckbreaker, she calls the Thorn Cutter, for the win.

Back in the interview area, Tony Chambers introduces Alicia Strong. Chambers officially welcomes Strong to RPW and asks for her thoughts. Strong blows him off, and snaps her fingers a few times. A personal attendant hands her a few objects: a compact, some sunglasses, and a coat. After making sure everything was acceptable, she dons the sunglasses and coat and tells her assistant to go prepare her dressing room. She’s done suffering this idiot. As she goes off screen, she asks her assistant if they can hire a personal interviewer, as Chambers is left alone.

Amazon hoists Quine up for a huge Powerbomb, but Quine goes for Queen Amazon’s mask, pulling it over her eyes. She slips off Amazon, and rolls her up, as Queen Amazon is still blinded.

Chloe Dean is in the interview area with Drake Young. Dean asks him if he found a partner for the upcoming match. Young replies that he went a little outside the box for his partner. Someone who’s been chomping at the bit to find someone new to hurt. Young says his only concern is that this won’t entertain his partner long enough. Dean asks why he felt the need to insult Teddy Powell earlier tonight. Young is offended. He says he didn’t say anything that wasn’t true. All he did was point out to those unfamiliar with the career of Teddy Powell what exactly he’s accomplished. Spoiler alert, it’s nothing. So tonight, Powell and that walking joke Ant-Man will know their place after they face Drake Young and Marcus Lucillius.
Out on the ramp, we see Tony Chambers with Marcus Lucilius. Chambers is obviously hesitant standing next to the large Roman. He asks Marcus why he agreed to be Drake Young’s partner tonight. Marcus says that he has some business he needs to attend to. He brings up how Ant-Man was one of the cowards who wouldn’t fight him fairly. He also says he hasn’t forgotten who won that match. And when that little pipsqueak is done with his little vacation with his exotic friend, he’s going to settle the score.

Teddy Powell & Ant Man vs Marcus Lucilius & Drake Young

Drake Young is very antagonistic in this match, bailing at the first sign of trouble, and only asking for a tag when Lucilius has complete control. Ant-Man manages to fight out of a Backdrop Driver, and makes the hot tag to Powell, who starts to throw hands at Lucilius, and Young. Powell looks to be in control of Lucilius, until Young flies into the ring and decks Powell in the head. Lucilius plants Powell with an Inverted Piledriver. He then drags the body of Powell over toward Ant-Man. He leaves Powell’s body lie there, as he tells Ant-Man to tag himself in. Ant-Man has more balls than brains, and tags the lifeless Powell. He tries to come in hot on Lucilius, but is mostly ineffective. Lucilius lands the Backdrop Driver and picks up the win.

RPW Women’s Invitational B Block MatchDanielle Sweetheart (0 Points) vs Alicia Strong (2 Points)Sweetheart looks to get on the board tonight, and she comes out on a roll. She gets a few early nearfalls on Strong, and that’s all it takes for Alicia to lock it down. Strong dominates the second half of the match, keeping the pressure on so Sweetheart can’t get back into it. She finally lands the Angel Driver, but that’s not enough. She grabs the wrist of the downed Sweetheart, and uses her leg as a fulcrum to wrench on the arm. Sweetheart has no choice but to tap out furiously as her arm is bent backwards.

The ladies have shown up in Mid West and they're tearing it up. #RealMainEvent

Fun show that keeps moving a lot of pieces around. The Jameson/Flash title match will be interesting. I wonder how much more you can get out of Flash as champion before you need to pull the plug on him because of his declining abilities. Can Jameson be the one?

Gabriel Buentello opens the show in the ring, awaiting his guests at this time, New England Revolution. Patriot, Pilgrim and Mexican expat Rapido meet Buentello and are asked how they are going to bounce back from the embarrassment they felt at the Commonwealth Cup Finals. Pilgrim speaks first saying that was a minor hiccup on the road to greatness. They underestimated just how low Wild and Free would sink to deter them and it won't happen again.
Masked Patriot agrees, saying that what happened at that show is a travesty. America is the greatest country on Earth, except that it lets in illegals and miscreants like Amazing Fire Fly and Boriken Love Machine Jr., and they have taken up the duty of cleansing CWB. If you doubt their ability to clean Boston, just remember what they did to KC Glenn, a man that was "beloved" by the sycophant fans, but who will never be seen in Boston again. Who ever crosses us, will have the same fate to look forward to, because their Revolution is real, and it will be felt

Bennett & Caballero celebrate the victory asking Martin where his pal Old Man Flash was to watch his back.

Phonse Lockett is in the back with Lisa Bowen, Bart Starr and Ash Campbell. Phonse starts with the obvious question of what brought 2nd Gen together. Lisa is quick to take this one as he wants her boys to focus on nothing but the match ahead of them. Ash Campbell is a stud, in and out of the ring in everything he does...Ash can't not smirk and Lisa looks mildly flushed. But it was asking too much of him to just waltz into the Commonwealth Cup and win. Not with groups like Monster Inc. and New England Revolution, and people just showing up out of the woodwork like Fro Sure. The Little Caboose is proud of her superstar but it wasn't fair, and she knew he needed some backup to bring the gold home. So she broke out her daddy's old rolodex (seriously pops, get a smartphone), and she did some scouting. And the name that kept calling out to her...Well look at him. He's big, he's strong, he's athletic, and he's as gorgeous as Ash and me. He is the perfect specimen to add to my stable of thoroughbreds that are going to take Boston and everywhere else by storm.

We go to the locker room area where Ernest Youngman is getting a shoulder rub from Mercedes Jiminez, while they go over strategy as to how to get their hands on The Monster when CILL's World Champion, Tigre Salvaje Jr. comes in and sits with them. The exchange pleasantries and Tigre notes that there seems to be a Monster problem and that now it is in Mexico, in his backyard. Tigre doesn't like problems, he likes solutions. Tigre likes the solution of having Red in their corner tonight because she will watch the outside. Tonight, they will watch each other's backs on the inside. And if The Monster gives any more trouble, he won't have to look far to find a champion willing to bring him the fight. Youngman looks impressed, but tells Tigre to just make sure Acid stays clear because the only guy that's going to bring the fight to The Monster is the first Boston Openweight Champion. The REAL champion of Boston. The Assassin, Ernest Youngman

We go to a video package, narrated by Phonse Lockett, about Austin Smooth's road through Boston, from his time working with Spencer Spade, to coming into his own, breaking out and putting on match of the night type performances, and it all coming together this summer as Austin Smooth won the 2015 Commonwealth Cup.

It almost works but BLM moves when Pavo tries to hit him from behind and Pavo only knocks Buentello down instead. That gives BLM enough time to deliver the Love Gun and get the win

Monster Inc. is in full force in the back with The Monster letting Youngman, Tigre, and whoever else is listening know that if they challenge the elite group in CWB, they're just going to end up food that gets devoured. They are the dominant force and nobody will take what belongs to them

"Everything that happened on that show was a travesty" I take it NE Revolution are not fans of one Austin Smooth.

The first half of the show was pretty awful. Henry Bennett coming in to ruin Martin's day, 2G running wild, Masked Patriot is not a nice fella, and Regular Joe was out numbered... What a load of shits those heels were.

But the night ended on a high note, with Monster Inc taking the fall. The world is safe from The Monster expanding his influence... for now.

Easy breezy show. Nice to see Mercedes again, and a quick trip down to Mexico gives us a breather before the next big show rolls around. Good fun.

We open the show at the announcers deck, as Tara Morgan, Tony Chambers, and Duke Hazzard welcome us to the show. Tonight, we will find out who will square off for the RPW Women’s Championship. But first, we have an RPW Title match months in the making. Kirk Jameson gets another shot at RPW Steve Flash. Last time, Flash was Disqualified when Matty Faith and Frank Harriet jumped Jameson. Tonight, TNF is one man lighter, after having cut Harriet from their ranks. Will that provide Jameson enough of an opening to win tonight?

Frank tries to plead his case on the outside to Steve Flash, but the former RPW Champion is having none of it. He blasts Frank across the jaw, and starts stomping away on the outside. Soon, Matty Faith joins in the assault, as Kirk Jameson celebrates in the ring. Jameson notices what’s going on outside the ring, and he taunts Flash by raising the title. Infuriated, Flash taps Faith on the chest, and signals to the ring. The two try to surround Jameson, but as they climb onto the apron, Matthew Keith storms the ring to even the odds. Keith and Jameson exchange a few words, before going back-to-back, facing Faith and Flash. Without the advantage, and Flash still tired from his match, Then, Now, Forever take their leave. Jameson and Keith shake hands, and as Jameson goes to break the handshake to celebrate more, Keith holds on. Keith points to the RPW title and then at himself, before letting go of Jameson. He then exits the ring and claps for Jameson, as the new Champion celebrates his first RPW Championship Reign.

Chambers then asks about Matthew Keith’s appearance, and his calling his shot for the title. Jameson says that when you call your own shot, you better not miss, otherwise… Before he can continue, Matthew Keith enters the frame and prompts Jameson “Otherwise… what?”. Jameson smirks at Keith, and finishes, “otherwise, you’ll just look like a joker who can’t handle the moment.” Keith laughs, and says that he’ll keep that in mind. He makes his claim for a title shot known, but says he’s got business to attend to first. Keith says he still needs to extract HIS pound of flesh from Steve Flash.

They respond by saying they’re very familiar with the auto-tuned microphones. Dean clears her throat and says that Sweet and Sour have been named the number 1 contenders for the RPW Tag Team Championships. She prompts for comments. Flash says that when they get their match they’ll beat… uh… They’ll beat… He asks J Cool who the champions are, and Cool just shrugs. Flash shrugs back and says whoever the champions are, they won’t be holding those precious belts much longer. J Cool says that it’s time to go.

No, it should be a battle between them. 2G doesn't disagree, because less competition suits them fine but they want to be clear. Only the 2nd Generation is going to end up on top.

We get another Austin Smooth vignette, talking about how The Monster is going to put roadblocks in front of Smooth to keep him from their fated match for the Openweight Title, but Austin Smooth is sorry to disappoint.

Boston Tag Team Title Match
Swedish Muscle - Anders Thunder & Nigel Svensson vs. Monster Inc. - The Monster & Acid II
No Contest (20:23)
Swedish Muscle and Monster Inc. have a history that goes back to the very beginning of CWB and another page of that rivalry is written here as both teams go back and forth to hold the coveted tag team titles. The match falls apart after Nigel Svensson goes for the Knee Trembler on Acid but has Kurt Lovenkrantz pulled in front of it to take the shot instead. Once he's down, Kirk Drury hits the ring to give Monster Inc. the advantage, which brings out Austin Smooth and Ernest Youngman to even the score, which brings out New England Revolution to cause a riot. Amazing Fire Fly flies in out of nowhere hitting half the ring with a Sky High Fire Fly and more brawling happens until Swedish Muscle holds the ring, only for 2G to show up. Bret Starr lays out Nigel with the Hollywood Hammer, while Anders gets tagged by the Ash 2 Ash. 2G, with Lisa Bowen's help, hold up the Boston Tag Titles and promise that they will become your new champions, as Championship Wrestling From Boston comes to a close
